About
As a person who has experienced trauma and loss, I truly understand how deeply life's challenges can shake us. I also know firsthand that developing new tools and coping skills is what allows us to reclaim our power and move forward.
Sometimes life can feel like you're running on a treadmill—moving constantly but staying in the exact same place. Hard or painful events can be a single, monumental moment or the quiet, cumulative weight of carrying too much for too long. A former colleague once said, "I might not be the one who caused the problems in my life but I'm the one who has to fix them." Therapy works best as a collaborative partnership built on radical compassion, zero judgment, and genuine human connection. I believe everyone possesses an innate capacity to heal, and it would be my privilege to help you rediscover yours.
My practice balances deep empathy with practical, evidence-based techniques. By blending CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered, trauma-informed care, we customize sessions to fit your unique needs. I specialize in supporting the LGBTQIA+ community, especially those navigating gender-affirming care, as well as adults with anxiety, depression, and/or trauma.
Healing isn't about erasing your past—it's about changing how the past lives in your present. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey. Together, we will create a space where you can move out of survival mode and step into a life rooted in safety, resilience, and genuine peace. Let's figure out how to get you moving again, together.

Hi, I am Stephanie Ehrlich-Seitz. I have been a licensed clinical social worker since 2011. I initially went to school for environmental health science, but the experience of caring for my terminally ill stepmother led me to pursue a more person-centered field. I enjoy helping people reach their goals through a combination of support, education, problem solving, and coping skills. I work with clients to address factors that hinder their quality of life and interfere with achieving their goals, such as anxiety, grief, depression, low self-esteem, anger management, and difficulty with interpersonal relationships.
I use a multi-faceted approach that includes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). I am intensively trained in DBT, which uses aspects of CBT along with a focus on mindfulness and skill building in interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance.
I enjoy helping others cope with day-to-day stressors and change long-standing negative thoughts and beliefs. This allows us to offer ourselves the same compassion and understanding we would give others without a second thought. Learning to see ourselves in a more neutral and accepting way leads to greater self-esteem and decreased self-doubt and negative judgment—something all of us could use.

At Thriveworks, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) primarily concentrates on assisting individuals in emotion regulation, enhancing interpersonal relationships, and acquiring effective coping strategies for managing stress and emotional difficulties.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) targets your personal challenges. You may work with your DBT therapist to maintain diary cards to monitor progress, emphasizing validation and support in the therapeutic relationship. DBT follows a stage-based approach, prioritizing crisis reduction initially and life satisfaction.
DBT was initially developed to address the needs of individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, its versatile approach has enabled its application to a wide range of mental health conditions, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, and anger issues.
The 4 pillars of DBT are mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) have distinct purposes and aren’t inherently superior or inferior to one another. DBT is most effective for managing emotional regulation, personality disorders, and interpersonal challenges, while EMDR is specifically tailored for individuals with trauma-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with therapists at Thriveworks in Fayetteville, NC is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of a standard DBT program is typically around 24 weeks, which is roughly six months. The actual number of sessions will vary depending on the issues you wish to address.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
